Did you ever know that the practice of present sewage management is nothing
more than a sheer oxidation?
The main characteristics of sewage-treatment illustrate what
happens to the used water:
v Carbon – found organically-bonded – in poo &
pee, soap/detergents for cleaning/washing, kitchen scraps… is transformed so
that about half of its amount flies into the atmosphere as CO2.
v N & P (bonded fine too) get transformed to become inorganics:
nitrate and phosphate, which are the main factors upsetting ecosystems of surface-waters
via eutrophication, while nitrate (due to its ingeniously rapid move downward in
soil) also contributes heavily to turn groundwater contaminated by. Added to
this happens an enforced denitrification, that turns bonded nitrogen into its
most inert form, N2 gas, only to be lost for the biosphere practically
for eons.
v Hamstringing the biosphere with the
previous, the outcome of which affects soils seriously, too. The forced oxidative destruction of organic
matter in sewage breaks the natural-processes that would allow it to be
part of normal circulation. Whereby
soil’s humus-content (which is a key factor in soil's productivity, water-holding
capacity and health) is on a constant decrease.
v This same unnecessary oxidative bond-breakage creates
automatically another uncalculated loss. The energy stored in these chemical bonds are nothing else than Sun’s
stored real-renewables, gained before via a route that needs no factory-like
supervision: photosynthesis. This accumulated energy disappears without use, as a
by-product, at the altar of sewage management.
v This strange loss of energy is even gloomier if we
regard that sewage
treatment requires at each steps a not insignificant amount of energy from the
outside, solely for the purpose of causing the
above-mentioned disturbances and losses.

Can you imagine now, with these glooms and murkiness of the flagship of cleaning, that
there exists a method devoid of all the above blemishes?
Which has additional benefits, such as
§ It offers water of better quality than tap water,
§ Enables you to detach from unnecessary services,
§ Presents you with re-using grey-water around the house,
to mention but a
few.
The articles ensuing in this blog are designed to deal
only with its sewage-aspect, which is, however, a central issue to many others.
